Got ideas for how things should be run differently in the Vineyard? Improvements? Suggestions? Brainstorms? Truckloads of fertilizer? Post here.,On the floor at MSG... one perfect song after another...and we were beyond elated with disbelief and gratitude. This was truely a fantasy set list and, in my opinion, the best of my 8 show run.

Hello all

I was wondering if any one else in the vineyard does geocaching? My wife and I have found a small "travel bug" in a local cache and would like to send it some where further than another local cache. PM me if you play and are interested. Robert

Also...

this vine was never sent by Long Dead so it probably won't be able to be re-seeded http://www.dead.net/forum/grateful-dead-hour-366-383-vine

Before I go...

It appears that Nathan (Long Dead) has taken a break from vining. I have been unsuccessful in any attempts to contact him. Not that there is anything wrong with taking a break since I myself will be on one. However, I did send him my Nov 1970 Vine which I will have to re-seed after only one person which sucks but it's life. If there are any vines anyone is on that are stuck with him, could we please make a list or post it in the proper thread? Also I request his name be placed at the bottom of any list he is on or removed entirely until we hear from him. The most important thing in the vineyard is to keep the music moving so I do not mean this as a personal attack. These are the vines I know of that are stuck with him: November 1970 Vine http://www.dead.net/forum/november-1970-vine December 1986 Vine http://www.dead.net/forum/december-1986-vine If I need to reseed the 1986 Vine, please pm me. Also, it appears Riley (sportzfreak260) is holding up some vines too (some from June it appears). Has anyone heard from him? Take care and happy vining to all -Jake

Hi Guys

I have been away for a while. I finally sent the 69 Vine on to Derek. So many issues with this site and also having personal issues makes it hard to maintain my enthusiasm. I also will not spend money on releases when I have no clue what shows will be included. Its insulting. However, I will be forever grateful to Mary and this site and all the viners. I now have tons of music that i will always cherish. Also, the site rejuvenated my interest in the Dead, as I got off the bus in 1985 and got back on 20 years later. Looking forward to seeing Furthur at MSG Thursday, and in Atlantic City Sat. night. Thanks again to all.

Attention Fellow Viners

I have said on this site before a couple of times that I will be taking time off from here and this time I'm sticking to it. A big thanks goes out to Trevor, Derek, Mark, Rick, Bob, RMB, CB, and all of the viners that were on here when I started that aren't with us now. Sorry if I forgot any names. Without these guys this place wouldn't be the same. I hope you all enjoy this very free trading community and most importantly, keep the music moving. Derek, sorry to hear about your dad. Hope all goes well. Best wishes to you and your entire family. Take care fellow heads and my friends, Jake

all's well

The China > Rider from 5/13/72 reminded me why I love the Dead so much :) I just need to remember that if they want to release shows or, God forbid (hehe), compilations, I get to save a few bucks and not buy them. And if I can ever gather the willpower to refrain from reading the comments re: the releases and on other threads here, I will really be doing ok. Maybe these realizations are the result of a couple of bits of bad news I received today: (1) one of my cats, Gretta, 13 yrs of age, is apparently blind. How the heck did that happen and how am I just finding out about it now?!?!? She lost some weight and we took her in today and that's the diagnosis from the vet. She seems normal other than the weightloss. Her routine hasn't changed. She's very active and gets around fine. It's crazy! (2) More importantly, my Dad, who has suffered from MS most of his adult life, and almost all of mine, is in serious trouble again. He has been in and out of the hospital with various infections and complications for the past 9 months now. As some of you may recall, I received a call from my grandmother last winter that things were looking bleak so I went back to Michigan and visited with him. Things turned out not to be as bleak as she said, but they certainly haven't gotten too good either. My uncle called today and said that the doctor told him that my father was dying a slow death, from the infections and the progressiveness of MS. My Dad's 62, which is pretty old for someone who has MS since their mid-to-late-20's. I'm flying out to see him tomorrow. It feels good to write this. I know I carry the best wishes from everyone here and I appreciate it.

intricate jam recognition

I felt kinda groovy after listening to the 12/6/73 China; whereas with the 2/24/74 China, I had to put myself back together, so it must have been MLB. I'll continue researching this weekend.

DP # 31

Does anyone have the SHN/FLAC files for 8/5/74, just the tracks NOT included on DP # 31? I have the omitted tracks for 8/4 and 8/6 and would like to vine the whole thing.

YMSB

Does anyone know whats going on with both YMSB vines ?

The Vine Re-seed Request Topic

Should maybe be a sticky thread? Might get more action that way.-Tommo

The Vine Re-seed Request Topic

I agree , actually I was wondering why it was`nt sticky .

Dark Stars

OK, so this has nothing to do with the Vineyard, but I thought it was cool. There is this theoritical stuff in the universe called "dark matter." Scientists believe it exists because there is too much gravity in galaxies to be attributed to common visible matter. Any way, they now theorize that there are stars made up of the stuff spewing energy. When the time came to give these stars a name, "Dark Stars" won out in homage to the Grateful Dead, and to a lesser extent CSN. Pretty cool. In case your interested, here is a link to an article I read: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/091221-mm-dark-stars.html?utm_sou… "That path is for, your steps alone."

Hats off to Robert Hunter !

Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashesReason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion....

Merry Christmas

Any vine in my mailbox today should go out tomorrow. Otherwise, I will be away on Christmas adventures and escapades until Jan 4. So anything that shows up after tomorrow will go out first week of the new year.

sticky

this topic IS sticky. Functionally this means it goes to the top of the heap in the Vineyard, from what I can tell, but it only applies within the directory.

This has nothing to do with vines...

but have any of you had the chance to get The Jerry Garcia Collection, Vol. 2: Jerry Garcia Band, Keystone Berkeley '75? I have been listening to it all day and it keeps getting better. The "Let it Rock" that appears on it is a little slower than usual, but crystal clear. A good copy of this song is hard to find too. Anyway it's great, I recommend it.

Hey Mary re: Sticky

I wasn't talking about this topic, it was the Vine Re-seed Request topic. I thought it might get more action if it was easier to spot.Glad you're back ! -Tommo

aha.

well, I think I can do that... Lemme look.

Going out of town

Hey all, I'm heading to San Fran here in a bit and will be back this weekend. I will try to take care of any vines that come my way by early next week. To make matters more difficult, I've been having computer issues and may need to fix this thing when I get back. Will be in touch. Have a grate New Years everybody! "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

New New Vines Topic?

with the new decade upon us, I figure we're about due for a new New Vines topic. I figure I will just copy over the header info from the 2009 topic. If anyone things this is a bad idea speak up now!

I have a music list : )

This is the first time I have compiled a list of everything that I have. It took me a few days of typing (pecking really). I deleted around 900 gigabytes of music that I was more or less "archiving" and never listed to. I haven't got around to making a list for the Grateful Dead or Jerry Garcia Band yet,(maybe next Christmas vacation) but this is pretty much every other band that I collect. I have already sent it to a couple of you that I trade with, if any one else want to see it PM me I will send it to you.

Lopezz

Dude that is one huge list man !! I keep telling myself that I`ll get my list together , haha . I just got another 1TB hard drive today and seeing this list kinda inspires me to seriousley work on my list now . and finally get organized ! Thank you Lopezz !!

List of Filenames

You can build a list of the contents of a drive in a few short key strokes.1. Open a command prompt (CMD) 2. change to the drive you want to list C:\Users\Rick>g; 3. Type in dir /b /s /a:d >show.txt (you may call it what ever you wish) This will create a text file in the G drive called show.txt if you would like an Excel file use the .xls extension. More in-depth explanations found here www.computerhope.com/dirhlp.htm Here is an example of the code I use - C:\Users\Rick>g: G:\>dir /b /s /a:d >show.txt G:\> Happy New Year Everyone, Peace Rick

List

Luckily I started mine right after I got started with this whole wonderfull thing. If anyone would like me to send you mine let me know. I really need a TB harddrive. I work with this 80gig one on my laptop, and burn everything to cd, which I would probably still do, but I'd like to start keeping all of the lossless files. Btw marye a new "new vines" section sounds like a great idea. The 2009 one is getting pretty big. Peace, Trevor "You know the one thing we need is a left handed monkey wrench....."

anyone here use tapecity ?

I just discovered 2 trojans ,Trojan:java/selace.L , Trojan:java/selace.K and Exploit:java/CVE-2008-5353.C . Anyone know anything about this ? I know this come from tapecity because it is the only site i used this past two day`s .

Trojans

Rumor from other boards is that the boys over at PlanetRock were fighting a pretty nasty trojan a day or two ago. Never have been to ether place myself but do a deep scan every couple of days to keep yourself bug free.Peace Rick

I noticed the one at planetrock

My virus scanner picked up on it as soon as the web page would open. I didn't even have to download anything. My scanner always stoped it before it got into my system though.

New Topic for 2010 Vines

Is anybody else as freaked out as I am about how fast time is flying by? happy new year to all. "That path is for, your steps alone."

"where does the time go"

yea pomo, I just realized I`ve been here 2 years and 6 weeks . seems like only yesturday I had the KFFM vine . my very first vine and first time with shn/flac . am now working on my third HD and I don`t know how many dvd`s of video and shn/flac . wow man.. "remember when you where young you shined like the sun...shine on you crazy diamond"

Can`t forget

I may not be here and not have what i do have if it was`nt for Bob aka Sunshinedaydream . Thank you Bob !! wherever you are . Hope you are well . And happy new year to everyone!

I am happy to see the vineyard still growing

Especially in the direction of the flac files being traded here. I think we have grown quite a nice library of music to choose from. I am surprised the membership has stayed so small. There are some sites that have hundreds of people trading and half the music that we do. I am thankful to be a part of it.

Listing Filenames: Thanks Ltapilot!!

Hey Rick!! That little bit of code you gave saved me COUNTLESS hours of list building!!! I appreciate it greatly!! Happy New Year to all... and thanks for all of the work that keeps this Vineyard thriving! Raymond

just got more dvd`s

and i got home to realize i have one spindle of dvd-r and a spindle of dvd+r , does anyone know what the difference is between the two ? I`ve been using +R`s but have no idea if I should take these back or go ahead and use the -R`s . any advise ? Thanks , Stu ..

DVD's

I find DVD+R's work better in DVD players if your making movies. I think they both work good for file storage though.

Different spin

I think the DVD-R's spin counterclockwise.

Looking for...

Does anyone have any Joe Walsh or Three Dog Night live shows?

on the horizon

I am finishing up listening to spring and summer 79 and will vine the "best of" those tours soon. I still have to listen to a bunch of the 1980 acoustic shows, and will vine those sometime in the next month or two. And I recently acquired the rest of 1970, just about everything after 9/20, and will probably vine the whole thing. Hope everyone had a joyful holiday season and here's to another great year in the vineyard!

stuman - since you were wondering

Sunshine Daydream Bob is alive and well in Spain and still hoping some incarnation of the Dead or offshoot would make it to Europe. I'll give him a big hello and thank you from you. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

Thanks Hal

It`s nice to know Bob is doing well , oh and you helped me convert that first vine so Thanks going out to you too !

It's freezing in Dixie

Man, it is cold here. Cold........I can't wait for spring

Freezing here too

And I`m further south then you EDAD . My banana trees are hating life right now !!

Stop Complainin'

I sat outside for the Jets game Sunday night and really froze my you-know-what off! It was worth it though. "That path is for, your steps alone."

BOOOOO Jets!

Sorry - I'm still bitter after watching the wheels fall off of my Broncos cart! Unfortunately the Chargers are going to be extremely hard to defeat and are the team to beat in the AFC. Oh yeah - and its colder than crap here too. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

Joe Walsh

I think I have some JW - might only be one show - I'll start looking around. "when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door"

David Bowie anyone?

Tiger Lilly mentioned David Bowie sharing the same birthdate as the late Elvis Presley: Happy #63, David! In his honour, are there any sources of bootleg Bowie out in Dead Head land?Listening to "Heroes" this morning while enjoying the crispy, snow-caked -2 weather in Kansas. David's first USA performance was Sept 22, 1972 at Music Hall, in Cleveland Ohio, home of the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame! I have seen Bowie perform, once, at Starlight Theater in KC. He is a remarkable entertainer, nearly as rambunctious as Mick Jagger.

'94 and '95

Can anyone get me a few more '94 and '95 shows or start a vine. I can contribute 4/1/94 to a new vine.

anyone been back to page 15 latley ?

Man lots o vines ! And looks like lots of stalled or dead vines back on pages 13-15 .

I get burned out

After about page 5! I have at least 4 vines on my to-receive-list that I am sure are dead. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin. Dust off those rusty strings just one more time. Gonna make em shine."

in response to EDAD... 94-95 request

N. NE wish vine

I have this vine and it is waiting for a taker! There are flac files included but there are also all the shows on CD-R's (18 total!) which kind of sucks but oh well. It looks like it costs over 5 bucks to mail it! Let me know if you want it! I'll keep eyes open for some more 94 95 shows. "I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel. Can't win for tryin.

JG's Tiger guitar...

Hey all...Just leafing through this week's Sports Illustrated magazine (Jan 25th) and noticed a piece written on Jim Irsay, the owner of the Indianapolis Colts.... I was interested in the article for many reasons.... none of which I guess I need to go into here.... but right there on Page 57 in the picture with Irsay is Jerry's Tiger. I remember that Irsay bought it many years ago... among many other interesting purchases... the guitar is not mentioned in the article but Stephen Stills and other references are made.... Thought you might find that curious.... I did. Be well all. Raymond
